They Live (1988)

I'm here to chew bubble gum and kick ass, and i'm all outta bubble gum.

[10/10 · 28 April 2018]

This is one of my top 5 sci-fi movies of all time, i just love it, the sad thing is not many people i know have even heard of the movie.

The movie seems really slow for the first 20-30 minutes but for me the moment the movie starts is when Roddy Piper puts the sunglasses on, that's the time i sat up and got into it.

The fight scene in the alley was the best movie fight scene i had saw up to that point and it stayed the best fight scene in my opinion for some years after.

If you are a sci-fi fan and not seen this movie yet then i ask you WTF? Get this movie watched now because you're not a true sci-fi fan until you have saw this.

I could go on and on about this movie but i have a life i have to get back too so get out there and watch it.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)

Visual Orgasm

[10/10 · 2 November 2017]

I waited a long long time for this movie to become available to me and i wasn't disappointed when i finally got to see it. It was the best Sci-fi movie i have seen ever i think visually, and i am a huge Star Trek and Star Wars fan, i can safely say the visuals in this movie beat star Trek and Star Wars hands down. The imagination and creativity in this movie i thought simply amazing, especially when it came to the assorted alien species. I am not very good at writing film reviews so i just write what i see in the movie, and what i seen in this movie has left me wanting more. If you are a Sci-fi fan and have not yet seen this movie...What the hell are you waiting for, get it watched now because you don't know what you're missing. A 10 out of 10 rating just don't seem good enough for this movie.

Other Space (2015)

This is funny why? Ask the easily amused people who liked it

[2/10 · 28 September 2017]

OK i managed to get through 3 episodes of this unfunny drivel without laughing once, then i switched off and threw it back where i found it. Why is America so bad at making sci-fi comedies? Seriously why don't they take a look at the UK's BBC's sci-fi comedies first before they even think about attempting to try make one on their own. The only reason i actually managed to get through 3 episodes was because of Natasha (Conor Leslie) who is an absolute babe and a half. In the end even she could not hold my interest in this unfunny crap. That is two new comedy Sci-fi shows America has released lately..this crap and Orville, i hoped other space might have been more watchable than the unfunny Orville but WOW was i wrong. The only reason i have given a star rating of 2 of 10 is thanks to Conor Leslie.

If you are a Brit and think it would be an idea to see America's idea of sci-fi comedy shows then be warned it is no Red Dwarf or Hyperdrive, my advice stay well clear of this total unfunny crap.

Operation Dunkirk (2017 Video)

Can't believe i just watched this crap from start to finish

[2/10 · 1 August 2017]

What can i say about this film that others have not already said already? Everyone has said it is unbelievably bad and that is an accurate description. The reasons i actually watched it from beginning to end is that it amused me, the continuity errors, the bad acting and the God awful dying. Someone should have taught these actors and extras how to put a little life into their dying skills. Their bad dying made me laugh. One more thing before i sign off, and this is more of some advice for film directors, do not have actual working clocks in the shot, there is a scene in a house in a French town with 2 British soldiers in a room chatting away, one minute the clock says 1.48pm, the next it says 1.45pm, the next you can't even see the hands of the clock , then the next minute it's back to 1.48pm. Either the director has managed to manipulate time or he/she has seriously messed up continuity wise. My bet is on the latter. My advice is stay away from this film unless you are really into bad acting, bad dying and continuity errors. It is because of these points stated that i gave this film 2 out of 10 rating because they managed to make me laugh.

The Saint (2017 TV Movie)

Return of the Saint

[7/10 · 15 July 2017]

First of all let me start by saying i think the really bad reviews on this are a little uncalled for. I actually enjoyed it and it was good to see Roger Moore the original saint in it if only for 1 minute, and Ian Ogilvie who played the return of the Saint in a more substantial role' Give it a try and judge the movie for yourselves, don't take my word or anyone else's word.

Life (I) (2017)

Why all the bad reviews, i found this movie excellent

[10/10 · 7 July 2017]

I cannot understand why so many people are giving this movie a bad review, i can only speculate they have ulterior motives for slating this movie. I found it excellent from start to finish. Do not listen to the bad reviews, i am a genuine movie watcher and i am telling you this movie is a 10 out of 10 in my view. Enjoy...i certainly did.
